Question for Sconny SportsJournalists.com: Could the Republicans field a primary candidate to challenge Walker in the recall, however unlikely?
There's not need to. The only reason to have a primary is to make the election later and the fact that there's going to be a primary (May 8) among the no-chance democrats makes it so the election already will happen on June 5.
Walker is by far the most popular of anyone who would run among Republicans. He'll win the election (and the crybaby class will turn their crybabying up even more). Besides, it's a recall election. He's the one they're trying to recall, not someone else.
You do realize a Republican beat the incumbent Republican Senate President in Arizona last fall in a recall election.
It ain't happening here. Trust me. The beauty of it all, too, is the whining party's candidates will have to drain their campaign accounts in the primary while Walker won't.
And since there will be a Dem primary in all the races and there won't be a Republican primary in any of the races (and Wisconsin has open primaries), Republican voters can vote in those primaries. There's a pretty large movement to write in Walker in the Democrat primary. With four Dems running and splitting the vote, it would be a real hoot if Walker could win the Dem primary.
